AliMed Early Fit Night Splint – Heel Protection Fixed 90° Night Splint
Call 866-218-0902 to confirm the correct size before ordering and make sure this night splint is the right fit for plantar fasciitis, heel protection, or footdrop prevention.
The AliMed Early Fit Night Splint is a fixed 90-degree night splint designed to cushion and protect the heel while helping limit footdrop and reduce ankle contracture during rest and sleep. It supports the foot in a neutral position while keeping the heel from contacting a hard surface.
Unlike standard plantar fasciitis splints focused only on fascia stretch, the Early Fit design also prioritizes heel protection and footdrop management. The soft padded terry liner improves comfort, while the generously proportioned polyethylene shell provides durable structure without creating direct heel pressure. It fits either the left or right foot and is commonly used for plantar fasciitis recovery, ankle contracture prevention, and post-operative positioning.

- Post-operative nighttime positioning

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AliMed Early Fit Night Splint used for?
It is used for plantar fasciitis, heel protection, limiting footdrop, and helping reduce ankle contracture during overnight recovery.
How is this different from a plantar fasciitis night splint?
The Early Fit focuses on heel cushioning and fixed neutral positioning in addition to fascia stretch, making it useful for patients who also need pressure protection and footdrop limitation.
How do I choose the correct size?
Use the shoe size chart. Small fits Women’s 4–7.5, Medium fits Women’s 8–10 and Men’s 6–8.5, and Large fits Women’s 10.5+ and Men’s 9+.
Can I walk while wearing it?
It is mainly designed for rest and sleep, not regular walking. Most patients remove the splint before full ambulation.
Do I need a prescription?
Most patients can purchase directly, though insurance reimbursement may require physician documentation depending on the provider.
What if I order the wrong size?
Poor sizing reduces comfort and often causes patients to stop using the splint. Call before ordering whenever possible to avoid unnecessary returns.
How long should I wear a night splint?
Most patients wear the splint nightly for several weeks depending on treatment goals and provider recommendations.
Can this help with footdrop?
Yes. The fixed 90-degree positioning helps limit footdrop and maintain better overnight foot alignment in appropriate patients.
